Three steps on ToSwap
-
Set the LTC amount and paste the Avalanche address that should collect payout on Avalanche C-Chain.
-
Tap Exchange to lock the live ToSwap quote and reveal this order’s deposit details.
-
Send exactly that LTC amount to the deposit. After Litecoin mainnet confirms, AVAX is pushed to your wallet.
Before you broadcast
- Litecoin typically needs a few confirmations before the swap continues.
- Blocks target 2.5 minutes — still subject to mempool delays.
- Use a standard Litecoin mainnet address (Legacy, SegWit, or M-address formats supported on most routes).
- If AVAX is late, refresh your wallet and re-check the order status. When a payout hash is already listed, email or SimpleX support with your Exchange ID — ToSwap has no login that can reopen expired pages.
Litecoin — Bitcoin's first fork
Litecoin (LTC) is a 2011 Bitcoin fork created by Charlie Lee, with early input from other developers including a former Google engineer. It keeps peer-to-peer transfers but targets faster blocks and lower everyday fees. Traders often call it "digital silver."
The speed and fees of the Litecoin blockchain
When you fund a swap with LTC, ~2.5-minute blocks help deposits confirm sooner than on many busier chains.
Typical fees stay low — about 0.0004 LTC (~$0.02 at current prices). Leave a little extra for the miner fee so the full amount you intend to send reaches the deposit address.
Litecoin address formats
If a send fails, your wallet may be using an unsupported address type for this route.
Contact support with your order ID before retrying on a different format.
Avalanche — fast smart-contract L1
AVAX is the native token of Avalanche C-Chain — quick finality, EVM compatibility, and deep cross-chain liquidity.
AVAX not received?
Confirm your wallet is set to Avalanche C-Chain and fully synced.
AVAX payout tips
- Payouts go to Avalanche C-Chain — use a 0x-style address compatible with your wallet.
- Check Snowtrace or a similar explorer with the payout tx hash from your order page.
- Allow a minute for your wallet to refresh after the explorer shows the transfer.
Deposit checklist
Chain mismatches and bad addresses are the usual failure modes — skim these notes before you fund the deposit.

FAQ for this route
Is KYC or a ToSwap account required for LTC → AVAX?
No. ToSwap never opens a profile or asks for ID documents on a standard Litecoin to Avalanche order. You stay non-custodial on both legs.
How fast does AVAX usually arrive?
Many payouts leave within minutes after the Litecoin mainnet deposit confirms. Congestion on Litecoin mainnet or Avalanche C-Chain can stretch that — fees and mempools set the clock, not a manual review.
Does ToSwap hold my LTC or AVAX?
No hosted balance. You broadcast LTC from a wallet you control; AVAX is paid only to the address you paste. Nothing sits under a ToSwap username.
What if I send LTC on the wrong network?
Match Litecoin mainnet exactly as printed on the order badge. A wrong-chain deposit often cannot be credited automatically — double-check before you broadcast.
